Race Tip

HORACE MANN (1) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by one length over 7f at Churchill Downs (Dirt). That continued the very strong form this campaign, with three wins from four outings. Big chance once again. FULL SCREEN (4) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by one length over 1m1/2f at this track (Dirt). Going up a level this time but he is good enough to play a major role. RED ROUTE ONE (3) drifted back early when resuming last start and could only manage a 7 length seventh over 1m1f in the G2 Clark Handicap at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Has been in the money at each second up start. Leading chance on best form. LAUGHING BOY (6) produced a fair effort to finish a nose away in second last start over 1m1/2f at this track after a win the run prior. Should be thereabouts.
